Eaglenest - First Nations Feast
Duration: 4 hours
A culinary West Coast evening of British Columbia
First Nations tradition and a celebration of the senses
The Sit Down Feast Concept
As guests arrive they are embraced with the smell of
alder and cedar and the sounds of drumming and the sight of
the Native Tradition of Pitt Cooking.
Guests are welcomed by Smoking Eagle Crantinis and Pacific Northwest Canapés as they meander around the pit and watch Elders demonstrate ancient cooking and preparation using hardwood.
“Not Just Food...it is an interactive, authentic First Nations Experience!”
